Uncharted has been on a constant rise.

1 sold 5.5M

2 sold 7.5M

3 sold 8.0M (confirmed to be 21M for the trilogy)

4 sold 10M+

GoW has never sold that much, has always been very hyped and high reviewed like that.

There is no indication GoW can outsell UC4, even as I sure hope it does.

This God of War is much different though.

Old God of War games required support from the american audience mostly. The extreme violence and sexuality and the genre was more american oriented.

This one will appeal to both US and Europe fairly equally and is more mass market oriented. Violence toned down but much more fluid and pretty, with no sexuality, open world of course appeals to everyone. With the high reviews and hype it has a good chance to match U4.

Exactly. I’ve been saying the same things. And I made a thread about all the reasons why I think GoW will sell gangbusters (http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=235469)
